ROBERT FINLEY
One of the most distinctive voices in today’s blues and soul scene, Robert Finley grew up among cotton fields and gospel choirs in church. After decades as a street performer and barroom singer, he released his debut album Age Don’t Mean a Thing in 2016 at the age of 62, proving that passion and talent […]
DEWOLFF
DeWolff are a young trio with big ideas, grabbing attention since 2008 with their powerful blend of blues rock, psychedelia, southern rock and soul, delivered with raw energy, authenticity and a clear ambition to revive the spirit of classic rock through a contemporary lens. Despite their youth, they already have more than ten albums to […]
THE HIVES
Since bursting onto the scene in the 90s, The Hives have earned a prime spot in rock’s recent history with their explosive formula of punk attitude, irresistible melodies and a style as sharp as it is wild. The Swedish five‑piece caused global mayhem with their second album Veni Vidi Vicious, featuring instant anthems like Hate […]
LES ROBOTS
Les Robots are an enigmatic Dutch instrumental surf-rock band, shrouded in mystery in both appearance and sound. Hidden behind robotic costumes, they adopt monikers like D.V.R., R‑JoHN, Pete‑R and C.A.S.E., delivering a musical blend that fuses classic surf rock with cosmic elements, space rock, and vintage touches — echoes of Joe Meek, Link Wray, The […]
CAPTAIN TRASHO
From the depths of Lugo and with a name as fierce as his sound, Captain Trasho bursts out as a wild garage‑punk act laced with power‑pop and a one‑against‑all attitude. Drawing inspiration from both garage legends and modern icons like Dead Elvis, he forges a raw, direct identity of his own. On stage, this one‑man band […]
THE CONCRETE BOYS
From the dark depths of Danish garage rock come The Concrete Boys, a wild new beast of punk rock. Formed by all three current members of the legendary PowerSolo —Kim “Kix” Jeppesen, Charlie Shapiro and Mike Sullivan— the project runs on pure, unfiltered rock combustion. Their debut album, Everything’s Better Than You, is a carousel […]
ÁNGEL Y CRISTO
Distilling pure punk essence without a hint of shame and with a name as blunt as their sound, Ángel y Cristo are the product of a generation raised among Madrid’s bars and garages. Their songs echo the last call of the night — empty bottles and blistered fingers after a day spent hammering guitars. Fuelled […]
RADIOACTIVAS
Emerging from the most underground corners of Barcelona’s garage scene, Radioactivas channel the fury of punk and the raw edge of unfiltered rock. Born from the alliance of a relentless all‑female quintet, they pay tribute to the grittiest roar of Detroit while forging their own voice — fast riffs, skin‑deep hooks and sharp lyrics stripped […]
CORROSION OF CONFORMITY
American heavy metal icons Corrosion of Conformity arrive at the festival as a prelude to their upcoming double album of covers, Riffissippi Studio Jam Sessions, which has already kicked off with a fiery take on Free’s “Fire and Water” (1970). Formed in Raleigh, North Carolina, in 1982, the band evolved from hardcore punk origins into […]
THE ADICTS Adiós amigos
After nearly five decades in action, The Adicts will stop at Azkena Rock Festival as part of their farewell tour. Formed in Ipswich in the late ’70s, the quartet led by Monkey — with his bowler hat, white make-up and Clockwork Orange-inspired outfits — proved that irreverence can be festive, glam, melodic and delightfully unhinged.
